It is a Richardson Romanesque style building, principally designed by Willoughby J. Edbrooke, of the Office of the Supervising Architect.[2] It was used as a federal courthouse and post office from 1895 to 1961, when both functions moved across the street to a new facility. The building to some extent resembles Henry Hobson Richardson's now-destroyedCincinnati Chamber of Commerce Building.[3] The Federal Aviation Administration occupied the building in 1970, primarily as an emergency relocation center for Washington-based operations, then vacated the building in the 1990s. The blast-resistant construction and communications facilities are still visible in the basement.[4] The building was partly renovated as an arts center. It is part of the Downtown Martinsburg Historic District and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|2008a}} 2. ^{{Cite journal|title=National Register of Historic Places Nomination: Federal Aviation Administration Records Center|url=http://www.wvculture.org/shpo/nr/pdf/berkeley/74001995.pdf |format=pdf|date=June 22, 1973 |author=John D.
